The main success's of my preliminary task was the creativity of the piece of work the narrative was original, it involved a job interview were the employer knew the employee from the night before and both were very embarrassed and shocked. A success regarding the technical side of the task e.g the camera work and editing was the flashback the audience understood what it was due to the effects used which was black and white fade, the transition leading up to the flashback meant the audience also understood that the character was also experiencing the flashback as well. I also thought that the match on action shot was a success in my work, it was one of the key shots that was meant to be involved in our task.
There were less successful moments in my preliminary task in the technical aspect such as the type of camcorder i was using, i used a low quality camera which lead to less enjoyable production, we also re-used cut scenes such as the shot of the clock, which did not bring continuity.
When making my British social realism film, i focased on making an orignal narrative. I also made sure that i took many shots from different angles because in my premliminary task i had a lack of shots which led to me re-using cut scenes. I also wanted to make sure that the mise en scene of the production suited the scene, this was something i improved upon becasue in my premlinary task, locations and cutomes didnt match the scene that it was meant to be.

Part 1
We had been approached by film4 and they told us to make a new British social realist film aimed at persons 16-24 years old. To give Film 4 an idea of how are film was going to develop we had to produce the first two minutes of the film, we had to include a clear sense of graphical, editing and musical style to me film will use. Due to film 4 being associated with the social realist genre we had to base the film around the conventions which are related to British social realism.The brief also stated to keep cost low and all visual and audio must be of our own.

The title of our production was called 'Wheel Power' this title actually is play on words, because the main has to find the will power to combat her new life after being paralyzed, and the title is spelt wheel instead of will because wheel relates to her being in a wheelchair.
In our opening two minutes of our production we first see the main character playing basketball this lets the audience know of her life before and lets them build a bond, we then cut to her waking up in the hospital and her friend relays the story of what happens to her and while she does this the main character has flashbacks we then see her friend leave and the doctor announces the news that she is paralyzed.
Our production explores the themes of disability due to the character becoming disabled. It also explores theme of working class which film4 often related to in there film an example of this is 'This Is England' are film explores this by filming in a location such as an urban park. The mise en scene also connotes the theme of working class, due to the graffiti shown in the opening scene and what the main character is also wearing. We also show the theme of ethnicity due to the range of different races and cultures.
